before videos were popular, your website is probably the reason why I know so much about phones. I love that you guys pay particular attention to details about phones that no other reviewer does. You guys might not be as popular on a KZbin platform but website wise your the BEST. Oh we also lost 960 slows, my gawd, all in the name of a 108 pixel sensor??

I absolutely love the 108mp sensor. Just hope that next generations allow for 60fps 8k and better focus and variable aperture. I'm sure that, although those photos look good on a 4k monitor, they will definitely look mind blowing once 8k becomes the standard.
@alireza.asol.x104 жыл бұрын
combination of big 1/1.3" sensor and f1.8 aperture means super shallow DOF. it's the reason of AF problems. this phone ( and all other phones with big sensors ) need that dual aperture that samsung discontinued. 48mp 1/1.3" sensor is much better for video recording. in 4k mode it uses 32mp with pixel binning ( 32/4 = 8 ) (66.7% of sensor ) in 8k mode it uses 32mp again, but without pixel binning. (66.7% of sensor ) so fov will be same in 4k and 8k mode. also quality will be higher because of bigger pixels. ( in 8k mode from 0.8 micron to 1.2 micron) that 108mp sensor was not a wise move ! in 4k recording it uses 72mp with pixel binning (72/9=8) (66.7% of sensor) in 8k recording it uses only 32mp without pixel binning ( 29.6% of sensor ) so that cropping happens compared to 4k recording.

bad move from samsung..thought some of the problems are just software but nope. they removed dual pixel, variable aperture and we don't have autofocus on the ultra wide, I mean wtf?? See I'm die hard fan right but following trends like big pixel instead of refining color tones, dynamic range, nights shots is stupid. Samsung should have just upgraded the zoom lens only the rest focus on software refinement. Now the focus system is bad, sammie keeps err we gonna add software improvements err this and that. No Samsung, stop with your marketing gimmicks and give a great simple camera system. I'm curious with Sony's upcoming flagship with their Alpha tech.

RE: Night hyperlapse. Hyperlapse is defined as a moving time-lapse. Since this mode is obviously just a timelapse feature adjusted to night conditions and does not include movement (in fact, Samsung says "keep the phone steady while recording"), but still uses the term "hyperlapse", I'm wondering if it could be construed as false or deceptive advertising and can Samsung be legally responsible for it?
